Bought Misaki's racket while I were in Japan last month at a discounted price at approximately 17000 yen. I have also bought 10 pink grips! Haha.... They provide free Wilson string which costs 1200 yen and free stringing service. Does my racket look exactly like what Misaki is holding on her hand? I've tried this racket at my badminton session last week, strung with Wilson string (I forgot the string model) at 27 pounds, a perfect doubles racket for me. It is lighter but it's faster and it offers a great control over the shuttle. Its weight helps in easy maneuver and backhand hits are very comfortable.

very unfortunately that the string has broken after I played for two badminton sessions. Wilson's string is not durable, sigh... Will restring with Yonex's string for next session.

oh! you're still here! i thought you are missing. lol... where have you been?

Just got a little tired of watching so much badminton.
Been following some other sports.
Ekiden was on NHK World last weekend.
It's interesting and very competitive. Some Olympic marathon runners actually take part.
Going to disappear off again soon, at least for a while.
Anyway, there will be no more major tournaments until the European ones in early March.
Hope Misaki and Ayaka can win tomorrow.
